I'm quite fond of Buddhists. They seem to cause the least trouble in the world, and wish no ill of anyone. I also quite like Scientology. I know it's founder was a failed sci-fi who spent his last days waited on hand and foot by fourteen year olds in hotpants, but I've always thought it seems relatively harmless. I don't understand why the German's get so exorcised about it.
The Magical Aura of Laura. Obviously.
The Vietnamese religion of Caodai is pretty cool.
they've recycled all the 'best bits' of other religions.

Their ‘Saints’ are quite unusual as well, including:
Joan of Arc,
Victor Hugo,
Descartes,
Shakespeare,
Lenin
Louis Pasteur
Some of their religious artefacts are also made out of recycled material (i.e. Old milk bottles)

One of the beliefs of Scientology is that they have the right to kill non-believers. Not only pretty heavy stuff for a modern religion but totally unacceptable for any religion!

An Alan Moore reference and a bit of PWEI thrown in for good measure. You've just become my new favourite person, Griff.
Scientology is only available to Hollywood stars isnt it? as long as they agree to make extremely crazy videos explaining why they are how they are and how wonderfully helpful they are .
